Modern technology, my arrse!

We are now well into the 21st Century. We can send messages around the world in the blink of an eye, we put men on the moon decades ago, and have sent spacecraft to Mars and beyond our solar system. We can destroy the planet many times over, cure many illnesses and live our lives in a virtual world...

So why the fuck does my TV fail to receive a picture if it's raining? How come Top Gear is interrupted by 'No satellite signal is being received'? So much for modern technology!

Once during a fever I remembered that when a European is dying, there is usually some sort of ceremony in which he asks the pardon of others and pardons them. I have a great many enemies, and I thought, what should my answer be if some modernized persons should ask me my views on this? After considering it, I decided: Let them go on hating me. I shall not forgive a single one of them.

I too had my Sky viewing disrupted by a "tropical" storm in rural Gloucestershire...annoyingly I was forced to stop watching Scum, before the anal rape scene too. Although the vicious battering of Baldy in the boiler-house by Carling was thankfully uninterrupted. "Where's your tool?" "What tool?" (Tw4tting noise) "This f*cking tool!"

They used to say if an infinite number of chimps typed we would get the works of Shakespeare, the internet has proved this is NOT the case...
